Anyone who's just installed Feisty 7.04

[musicman]

This may get me in trouble, but I recommend...vlc as my media player of
choice

you can find it in synaptic, and it is the ultimate of all media players -
dvds, wmas, movs, you name it...

it's the bomb

BUT, to answer your questions, the default that was entered (I've not
changed it) is:

totem %m

in the preference you talk about.

welcome to FOSS land! it's grand

cheers

In measure theory (a branch of mathematical analysis), one says that a
property holds almost everywhere if the set of elements for which the
property does not hold is a null set, i.e. is a set with measure zero. If
used for properties of the real numbers, the Lebesgue measure is assumed
unless otherwise stated. It is abbreviated a. e.; in older literature one
can find p. p. instead, which stands for the equivalent French language
phrase presque partout.
